Maple Sausage Cornbread

With Hot Honey Butter

Serves 4 to 6

Cook Time 30 Minutes

PREP TIME: 15 minutes

For the cornbread

  • 1 (16 ounce) package maple breakfast sausage links, about 14 links
  • 1 1/3 cup cornmeal
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 2 tablespoons Challenge Salted Butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs

Hot Honey Butter:

  • 1 stick (4 ounces) Salted Challenge Butter, at room temp
  • 1/3 cup mild honey
  • 2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Preheat your grill to medium high with a two zone setup. Rub an 8-9 inch cast iron pan with a neutral oil and heat it up empty in the grill.

 

Cook the breakfast sausage on the grill using a sheet tray. Allow it to cool slightly and then slice it into disks.

 

Combine the cornmeal, salt, baking powder, buttermilk, butter and eggs in a bowl. Whisk to combine.

 

Remove the preheated pan and place the sausage in the pan. Top it with the cornbread mix and place it back on the grill for around 22 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean. Rotate the pan halfway through the cook.

 

While the cornbread is baking, make your hot honey butter. Mash together the butter, honey and cayenne and stir to combine. Check it for spice and seasoning and add more cayenne as necessary.

 

When the cornbread comes out of the grill immediately spread the hot honey butter on the top and allow it to melt into the cornbread. Allow it to cool then slice it up and serve it with the rest of the butter.

Comments:


This looks so amazing, it’s definitely my next cornbread I want to try! Cornbread always seems to be so underrated and bland, rarely do people decide to go outside the box and add additional ingredients to it and I’m glad to finally see a recipe on another website adding a bit more flair to the underrated cornbread! We’ve got a Cajun Cornbread and Cajun Honey Butter Recipe on our website but after viewing this it inspires me to try adding in some Spicy Sausage to it and make it into a full blown meal instead of just a side. BTW, AMAZING video, fun and informative and you’ve got to tell me where you got that Cast Iron pan that is already divided, that is aweomse! Thanks for the great recipe and amazing video, I really enjoyed it!

Steak Salt Pepper + Three Chiles Tri-Tip

Author Mark & Fey
Course Dinner
Keyword Beef, Steak
Prep Time 1 hour
Cook Time 1 hour 15 minutes
Servings 4

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 x 2 to 3 pound tri-tip
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons Salt Pepper + Three Chiles Rub From Spiceology
  • Extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

  • Season steak 60 to 75 minutes before you begin cooking. Measure out one tablespoon of rub per pound of tri-tip.
  • Sprinkle the top half with the rub and let it sit for fifteen minutes. This allows the salt to draw out some of the moisture to help the rub stick when you flip it.
  • Now flip the steak and season the other half. Allow it to sit on the counter for an hour to come to room temperature.
  • Set up your grill, oven or smoker to indirect heat at 250ºF. Cook the steak until it reaches 122º internal (this can be anywhere from 30-75 minutes depending on the grill and size of the steak).
  • Remove it and let it rest on a rack while you set the grill to medium-high direct heat (you can do this in a cast iron pan on your stove as well).
  • Once the grill is hot, place the meat onto the grill and sear each side for 1-2 minutes. The final internal temp should be 128ºF-130ºF resulting in a perfect medium-rare steak.
  • Allow it to rest for 20-30 minutes, slice thinly against the grain, drizzle with EVOO and enjoy. Looking for some extra heat? Dust the steak with more Salt Pepper + Three Chiles after slicing.

The Grill Dads’ Lobster Pot Pie Recipe

Author Mark & Fey
Course Dinner
Keyword Seafood
Cook Time 1 minute

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 8 tablespoons 1 stick unsalted butter
  • 1 large onion finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 1/2 cups fish stock or lobster stock
  • 1 tablespoon sherry
  • 2 teaspoons The Grill Dads' Salt Pepper + Three Chiles Rub
  • 3 tablespoons creme fraiche or heavy cream
  • 1 pound cooked fresh lobster meat
  • 1 1/2 cups frozen peas
  • 1 1/2 cups frozen pearl onions
  • 1/2 cup minced flat-leaf parsley
  • 1 14-ounce package frozen puff pastry, 2 sheets, thawed according to the package directions

Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and saute until translucent, 10 to 12 minutes. Whisk in the flour and cook for 2 minutes, or until the flour smells nutty and no longer looks dry. Whisk in the stock, sherry, and Salt Pepper + Three Chiles and bring to a simmer to thicken. Remove this sauce from the heat and gently stir in the creme fraiche.
  • Chop the lobster into bite sized pieces. Add the lobster meat, peas, pearl onions, and parsley to the sauce skillet.
  • Unfold the puff pastry onto a light floured surface and use a large circle cutter to cut 8 rounds of puff pastry. Move the rounds to a parchment paper baking sheet and bake until golden brown, and puffed, about 10 minutes.
  • Move the lobster mixture to oven safe ramekins or mini cast iron skillet and arrange on a baking sheet. Place one piece of puff pastry on each ramekin. Bake the pot pies for 10 minutes to heat the filling. Serve immediately.
  • Technique Tip: Cook the lobster meat yourself by getting some tails and claws in the shell and cooking them over a direct flame on the grill to add some delicious smoky flavor to compliment the creaminess of the pot pie.
  • Swap Option: King crab would be a nice substitution.

Remove the preheated pan and place the sausage in the pan. Top it with the cornbread mix and place it back on the grill for around 22 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean. Rotate the pan halfway through the cook.

 

While the cornbread is baking, make your hot honey butter. Mash together the butter, honey and cayenne and stir to combine. Check it for spice and seasoning and add more cayenne as necessary.

 

When the cornbread comes out of the grill immediately spread the hot honey butter on the top and allow it to melt into the cornbread. Allow it to cool then slice it up and serve it with the rest of the butter.

Keyword Beef, Sandwiches
Prep Time 3 minutes
Cook Time 1 hour 30 minutes
Servings 8

Ingredients

For the caramelized onions:

  • 4 jumbo yellow onions
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • Kosher salt for seasoning

For the horseradish cream sauce:

  • 1 cup mayo
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup prepared horseradish
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 2 tablespoons lemon zest from about 1 large lemon
  • Dash Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the steak and sandwiches:

  • 4 tablespoons ground coffee
  • 2 heaping tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon chipotle pepper
  • 2 tablespoons granulated garlic
  • 2 tablespoons smoked paprika
  • 3 tablespoons kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 pounds tri-tip trimmed and sliverskin removed
  • 8 French bread rolls preferably New Orleans style
  • Swiss cheese slices
  • 1 bunch watercress

Instructions

  • The tri-tip is one of the most flavorful and versatile cuts of meat. Using a great dry rub paired with sweet caramelized onions and the unique heat of horseradish cream sauce make this a completely unique and fan favorite at any event. We first started making this as an afterthought because usually we had leftover tri-tip and the next day it was perfect to make a quick sandwich.
  • Technique tip: Sear the trip-tip on high heat then place on the cool side of the grill and finish cooking on indirect heat.
  • Swap option: Use maple syrup instead of honey for the onions, veggie oil instead of olive oil and any type of lettuce instead of watercress. Use BBQ or even a mustard based sauces instead of horseradish.
  • For the caramelized onions:
  • Thinly slice onions and separate into rounds. Place in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, a drizzle of local honey and sea salt. Then add the butter on top and let melt down into the onions. Continue to cook down until the onions are somewhat transparent, gooey and quite sticky with some of the ends crispy. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • For the horseradish cream sauce:
  • In a bowl, add all the ingredients and stir to mix well. Set aside.
  • For the dry rub:
  • In a small bowl, add all the ingredients and stir to combine well.
  • For the steak:
  • Coat the tri-tip with the dry rub, cover with plastic wrap and place in fridge for at least 3 hours (could be up to a day). Remove and let set at room temperature for 30 minutes before transferring to the grill. Heat grill to 500°F. Sear meat on both sides for approximately 5-6 minutes. Remove from direct heat and place on the indirect side of the grill or reduce heat to medium-high (approximately 350°F). Continue to cook until internal temperature reaches 130°F, approximately 20-25 minutes. Place tri-tip on cutting board and let rest for 12-15 minutes before thinly slicing (across the grain). Then sprinkle with a little more kosher salt.
  • To assemble:
  • Drizzle the bottom of the New Orleans French bread, drizzle with the horseradish sauce and top with the meat, cheese, watercress and a final drizzle of the sauce.
